Jessica Alba’s Cool White Take on Summer Street Style

One of the best things about summer is being able to frolic around town in light and feminine dresses. The spring runways provided a bevy of options, ranging from floor-length stunners with a seascape motif from Valentino, modern takes on boudoir dressing at Chloé, and festival frocks from Saint Laurent. However, sometimes the simplest option is the best one. Enter Jessica Alba, whose fitted Narciso Rodriguez sheath made for a clean polished look on the streets of New York City.

The brilliance of Alba’s dress comes through in its marriage of on- and off-duty style in one easy piece. Whereas Amal Clooney stunned in two ensembles, Alba achieves seamless harmony through punchy accessories. A metallic shoulder bag and strappy sandals lift the dress into mod territory. And while Alba appears ready to tackle both the boardroom power meeting and the requisite celebratory drinks after, she could also pair her dress with gladiator sandals and a jean jacket for a SoCal spin on Gotham style.
